Versace is launching a series of conversations, the Medusa Power Talks, around female empowerment, a cause that’s slowly rising to prominence and which Donatella feels strongly about.

“The archetype of a powerful person has changed forever. For me, to be powerful is above all, the freedom to express yourself as you are, without any fear. Power plays many roles in our everyday lives. With my amazing panel of friends, Medusa Power Talks will discuss, examine and no doubt argue, about what it means for us all to be powerful in 2021. I am passionate about offering a platform to voices that represent the future I want to see, and I can’t wait to hear their stories.” – Donatella Versace

The project will launch with a series of recorded interviews with participating speakers, including Precious Lee, Indya Moore, Irina Shayk, Chelsea Miller, and of course, Donatella Versace. These interviews will be shared on Versace’s social media platforms from today and will culminate in a live discussion on the brand’s newly launched Clubhouse profile. The project aims to magnify voices making progressive steps towards gender equality and championing female power.

Medusa has long been a symbol of power. For Versace, she represents unapologetic authority and female empowerment. She is an iconic signifier of the fearless Versace woman.
